The Fighting Agents

A Men at War Novel, Book 4

De: W. E. B. Griffin

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The time is early 1943: In the Philippines, a ragtag American guerrilla army battles the Japanese, under a most unusual commander. In Budapest, an agent must keep two key prisoners from being interrogated by the Gestapo, his only choices being to rescue them - or kill them. In Washington, an Army Air Corps captain suddenly finds himself assigned deep under the sea, his mission an improbable one of submarines, supplies, arms, and gold. And in Cairo, an undistinguished pilot named Darmstadter wonders why in the world the OSS is interested in his services, only to find out in the most dramatic way possible -and become a hero in the process.

Everywhere adventure crackles, fueled by the narrative realism, rich characters, and special flair for the military heart and mind that have always made Griffin's novels unique. The Fighting Agents is further proof that "Griffin rates among the best storytellers in any genre." (Phoenix Gazette)

Fighting Agents

the books in this series only get better. Griffin really draws you in and the climax (climaxes) are worth waiting to the last page. in this case the last page is in the Afterword. Great Book.

Enjoyable Listening and I do not mind telling you

This is a story from a great writer W.E.B. Griffin and super performance by Scott Brick made a day of enjoyable listening.

Another Great Book

Once again WEB Griffin comes through with more of his riveting historical fiction. Thanks, looking forward to the next one!

addicted to W.E.B Griffin' books

I love all of his books. he is one of the best authors in my opinion

Always a good story!

Same old WEB Griffin series storyline that makes you want the next one in the series.

Good book, terrible performance!

If you could sum up The Fighting Agents in three words, what would they be?

great book, fun series

Would you be willing to try another one of Scott Brick’s performances?

NO!!!!!! He is the worst narrator on Audible! Restrict Scott to American stories only, he does not handle non-english words, makes for a very tough listen!

Typical Griffin, always entertaining

Scott brick is the best in the business. Thank you Scott for hours of entertainment! Keep up the good work

Great

The series just keeps getting better and better. character development is very interesting and in depth.

Masterpiece

Seriously one of Griffin's best books and I've read all of them many times. it's a great series.

Spies

Over the years I have read most of W.E.B. Griffin’s books. Now they are coming out in audio form I have gone back and checked my records for the ones I had missed reading. This book is one of them. Unlike some of the other series this one is about spies primarily the OSS. It is best to read the series in order; this is the fourth in the series. This book has two main plots going on, one with James Whittaker who is being sent to the Philippines to meet with General Wendell Fertig. He is a Lt Colonel that promoted himself to General to unite all the wandering U.S. and Philippino Army members that had fled into the jungle from the Japanese. He managed to gather 30,000 + men to fight as a guerrilla army against the Japanese. General MacArthur refused to recognize him so Donovan’s OSS went in to help supply him.
The other plot was with Canidy and his group bringing nuclear scientist out of Germany. In this particular case they were coming out via Hungry but Eric Fulmar and his scientist were caught for being Black marketers and sentenced to 90 days hard work in a coal mine. Canidy set up a rescue before the SS discovered who they were. The book has lots of action, suspense, some humor. Scott Brick was great narrating the book. If you are into military historical fiction you will enjoy this book. I was particularly interested in the author’s comments at the end of the book. Will not tell you, you must read the book to find out.
